Built to protect circuits against overloads and short circuits, the Eaton PDG23M0060VFFL molded case circuit breaker is rated 60A, 600VAC and 25kAIC at 600VAC with 3 poles. The Power Defense PDG2 frame uses panel mounting and a load side lug connection. Its thermal magnetic trip has fixed settings for long-time and instantaneous protection. Approvals include CSA, CCC, IEC, UL and CE.
How should I use the 60A rating when selecting the Eaton PDG23M0060VFFL?
The 60A rated current is the basis for coordinating this breaker with the circuit load and conductor ampacity. Select it as part of the circuit design rather than treating the rating as an exact instantaneous trip threshold.
How does the three-pole configuration affect circuit selection?
This is a 3-pole breaker rated for 3-phase circuits. The pole count allows each phase conductor to pass through a separate protected pole in the same breaker.
How do I check the voltage and interrupting ratings against my installation?
The breaker is rated 600VAC, with an interrupting rating of 25kAIC at 600VAC. Check the circuit voltage and ensure the available fault current at the installation point does not exceed that interrupting rating.
What does the thermal-magnetic LI trip do?
The thermal element provides long-time overload protection, while the magnetic element provides instantaneous response to short-circuit current. The LI trip function combines these two protective functions.
Can I adjust the overload or instantaneous trip settings?
Both the thermal and magnetic trip settings are fixed. Select this breaker where fixed trip behavior meets the circuit's protection requirements rather than relying on field adjustment.
How are the outgoing conductors connected?
The load-side connection uses lugs. Plan the outgoing conductor terminations around this lug connection method.
What dimensions should I use when planning installation space?
The breaker measures 4.12 in wide, 6 in high and 3.5 in deep. Use these dimensions to plan its physical footprint, while allowing working space for conductor routing and termination.
